[Hap-users] Total Wall area for each orientation

[Matthew Scott]

I think you're misunderstanding me. I am using HAP version 4.6.1 and am
well aware of the rotate building option and rotate space option.  What
I'm talking about is a new LEED documentation requirement. The HAP LEED
Summary Report only lists the total wall area and glass area. The new
LEED documentation requires this total to be broken down to total wall
area and glass area facing North, total wall area and glass area facing
East, and so on...  I was asking if anyone knew of a way to get HAP to
tell me this, but I've heard from the software developer and HAP's tech
support that this feature is not currently available, but it sounds like
it will be added in the future at least.

 

So I have the answer to my question. My additional comments were for the
benefit of the community to be informed about this new LEED
documentation requirement.

 

Regards,

Hi Matt,

 

which series HAP are you use now, I think there is an option on HAP 4.4
or above for rotation 90 degree.

thanks.

The new spreadsheet has instructions that say to enter the area for the
North-facing or nearest North-facing, East-facing or nearest East-facing
and so on... So I guess it's up to us to divvy up all of our Northeast,
Southeast, Southwest, and Northwest-facing exposures however we see fit
or whichever way works out to meeting the LEED restrictions of how much
glass area you're allowed on each exposure.

Area by orientation.  That's new since the last project I did.  The LEED
spreadsheet only has rows for the four cardinal directions.  What about
northeast facing walls?  I don't suppose we could overwrite the formula
and just enter the total . . .

 

Sadly, I don't know of any way to get the wall area per orientation.  I
will be using your approach of the space inputs and a spreadsheet.

The new LEED section 1.4 Tables ask for the total area for each 90
degree orientation, as well as the total glass area on each orientation.
Is there a quick way to get this info in HAP or is the only way to look
at each space input and manually total it up?
